Like so many others, Marie was in panic mode with work once the pandemic hit, and isolating lockdown conditions also meant she wasn’t getting the attention from men that she was used to. However, she also suddenly found herself craving more out of relationships with the opposite sex. She says she wanted something “stable,” and if anything was going to change in that category, she needed to be proactive.
“I wasn’t just swiping right on the next bad decision who I knew would just want to **** and ghost me,” Marie says, describing her revamped Tinder habits.
The alternative approach quickly paid off. By the summer of 2020, Marie was in a relationship that lasted nearly a year. “It was honestly the first time I slowed down and met someone and could process it all,” she says. But in what she calls a “heartbreaking” twist, the man she was with decided to move back home, out of state. A long-distance thing wasn’t going to cut it.
Enter: Alex, the sweetest guy.
